2. Free-running count operation and periodic count operation

Immediately after a reset, the TPU's TCNT counters are all designated as free-running
counters. When the relevant bit in TSTR is set to 1 the corresponding TCNT counter starts up-
count operation as a free-running counter. When TCNT overflows (from H'FFFF to H'0000),
the TCFV bit in TSR is set to 1. If the value of the corresponding TCIEV bit in TIER is 1 at
this point, the TPU requests an interrupt. After overflow, TCNT starts counting up again from
H'0000. Figure 9.7 illustrates free-running counter operation.
When compare match is selected as the TCNT clearing source, the TCNT counter for the
relevant channel performs periodic count operation. The TGR register for setting the period is
designated as an output compare register, and counter clearing by compare match is selected by
means of bits CCLR2 to CCLR0 in TCR. After the settings have been made, TCNT starts up-
count operation as periodic counter when the corresponding bit in TSTR is set to 1. When the
count value matches the value in TGR, the TGF bit in TSR is set to 1 and TCNT is cleared to
H'0000. If the value of the corresponding TGIE bit in TIER is 1 at this point, the TPU requests
an interrupt. After a compare match, TCNT starts counting up again from H'0000. Figure 9.8
illustrates periodic counter operation.
